In order to get better looking (!!!) configuration for the service manager you are essentially forcing Fedora core user, who wish to recover a dead OS to: A. Buy a USB disk. B. Replace old machine with no vacant/non-existing USB sockets. C. Create a special recovery version of said Linux. D. Stop using serial and/or remote access tools to the machine and/or get someone with access to said machine to stick the USB key into the said machine. Seriously., please tell me, did you bother to read what you wrote, before pressing that send button, or did the need to win this argument derailed you completely? If you are so sold on the intent of having a XML configuration, find ways to integrate them into the FC recovery system and them post your solution.
